6
for you hey everyone in this video we're going to dive
7
into the basics of sets we'll cover what a set is the notations of sets and how to perform set operations
8
now if you're studying for your ig cse gcse or o level exams with cambridge international Pearson at Excel,
9
AQA, or OCR, this video is made for you.
10
It's also essential foundational knowledge for anyone heading into higher -level math.
11
I hope you have fun learning and start loving math as much as I do.
12
Let's get started.
13
A set is a collection of objects, which are called the elements or members of the set.
14
These objects can be numbers, animals, fruits, colors, in fact, anything you can imagine.
15
A set can be described in two ways, by listing all its members or by giving a rule to describe them.
16
In both cases, the list or rule is always enclosed in braces or curly brackets.
17
For example, here is a set B shown by listing all its members,
18
2, 4, 6, 8, enclosed in braces.
19
Alternatively, this same set B can be described by a rule,
20
the positive even numbers less than 10, also enclosed in braces.
21
Both of these represent the exact same collection of objects.
22
Next, let's talk about set notation.
23
We're going to cover the symbols for the number of elements in a set, is a member of, the empty set,
24
the universal set, subsets, complements, intersections, and unions.
25
The number of elements or members in the set B is denoted by this symbol.
26
Using our sets from before, the number of elements in set B is 4.
27
This symbol means is a member of, or is an element of, and the symbol means is not a member of.
28
In the above example, 2 is a member of B,
29
but 3 is not a member of Next,
30
let's talk about empty sets and universal sets.
31
This symbol, or this symbol, is used to represent the empty set, or the null set.
32
For example, if the set B equals days of the week starting with P,
33
then B is empty set because there are no members in set B.
34
Therefore, the number of elements in set B is zero.
35
Now, the universal set is denoted by this symbol.
36
The universal set contains all the elements being considered in a particular problem.
37
For example, if our universal set is days of the week, we would list all members as Monday,
38
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
39
Next, let's talk about subsets and complements.
40
This symbol, or this symbol, means is a subset of.
41
If set A is a subset of B, it means that every member of A is also a member of B.
42
For example, let's look at set B equals 2, 4, 6.
43
The all possible subsets of B are set of 2, set of 4, set of 6,
44
set of 2, 4, set of 2, 6, set of 4, 6, and set of 2, 4, 6.
45
And don't forget, the empty set is also a subset of B.
46
The empty set is always a subset of every set.
47
Now, the complement of set A is denoted by this symbol.
48
It is the set of all elements in the universal set that are not in A.
49
For example, if our universe is days of the week, and set A contains days starting with T, which is Tuesday, Thursday.
50
Therefore, the complement of set A is Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
51
Next, let's talk about intersection and union.
52
The intersection of sets is denoted by this symbol.
53
The intersection of A and B is the set of elements which are in both A and B.
54
If set A is the positive integers that less than 10 and set B is 2, 3, 7, 11, 14, 25,
55
therefore the intersection of A and B is 2, 3, 7.
56
Now, the union of sets is denoted by this symbol.
57
The union of A and B is a set of elements which are in A or B or both.
58
Using our sets from before, the union of A and B is 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7,
59
8, 9, 11, 14, 25.
60
Next, let's talk about how to perform set operations.
61
If the universal set is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
62
7, 8, 9, 10, we have three sets within it.
63
Set A is 1, 3, 5, set B is 3,
64
4, 5, and set C is 1, 4, 10.
65
Now, let's find the complement of set A.
66
The complement of set A is all elements in the universal set that are not in A.
67
So we remove the members of set A, which are 1, 3, 5, from the universal set.
68
Therefore, the complement of A is 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
69
Next, let's find the union of B and C.
70
The union of B and C is the set of elements which are in A or B or both.
71
Combining them gives us B union C.
72
Therefore, the union of B and C is 1, 3, 4, 5, 10.
73
Finally, find the intersection of A and B.
74
The intersection of A and B is the set of elements which are in both A and B.
75
Looking at our lists, 3 and 5 appear in both.
76
Therefore, A intersection B is 3, 5.
77
Next, let's look at operations involving three sets.
78
Using our sets from before, first find the intersection of A, B, and C.
79
This is the set of elements that are in all three sets at the same time.
80
If we check our lists, there isn't a single number that appears in A, B, and C.
81
Therefore, A intersection B intersection C is the empty sets.
82
Now, let's find the number of elements in the complement of B and then intersection with A, then union with C.
83
This looks tricky, so let's do it step by step.
84
Step 1.
85
Find the complement of B.
86
The complement of set B is all elements in the universal set that are not in B.
87
We remove 3, 4, and 5 from the universal set.
88
Therefore, the complement of B is 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
89
Step 2.
90
Find the intersection of the complement of B and A.
91
The intersection of complement of B and A is the set of elements
92
which are in both the complement of B and A.
93
We look for elements that are in our new list and in set A.
94
The only number in both is 1.
95
Therefore, the intersection of the complement of B and A is 1.
96
Step 3.
97
Find the union of that result with set C.
98
The union of our result set and set C is the set of elements which are in 1, or C, or both.
99
We take our result set, 1, and combine it with everything in set C, 1, 4, 10.
100
Therefore, the complement of B.. intersection A and union C is 1 4 10.
101
Step 4.
102
Find the number of elements, since the number of elements in the complement of B intersection A and union C is 3.
103
Next, let's check your understanding of set notation.
104
Using our sets from before, state whether the following statements are true or false.
105
First, 5 is a member of B.
106
This is true because 5 is an individual element found inside set Second,
107
the set of 1, 5 is members of A.
108
This is false.
109
While 1 and 5 are elements of A, the set of 1, 5 is a subset of A, not a member.
110
Third, set A is a subset of C.
111
This is false.
112
For A to be a subset of C, every element in A must also be in C.
113
Since 3 and 5 are in A but not in C, A is not a subset.
114
Fourth, 4 -5 is a subset of B.
115
This is false.
116
The notation is wrong.
117
The numbers 4 and 5 are just a list of elements of B.
118
To represent a subset, they must be enclosed in braces to create a set, 4 -5.
119
Once you add the braces, 4 -5 is a subset of B would be true.
120
I really hope this video helps you out.

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
